The Portuguese filmmaker Laura Marques has the mission to settle in a remote point of the Swiss Alps to care for a herd of cows of the Herens Cattle race, essentially bred to compete in tournaments where the most powerful cow is called "The Queen".

In this documentary full of humor and intellect, Marques makes eloquent attempts at becoming the "queen" of the herd, even by assuming her role literally. The documentary questions the way humans exercise control over animals and invites us to imagine a world where this power relationship could materialize in a different way.
